Here's a paragraph from Martin Brehenys article in todays indo.

"The GAA don't need big money for TV rights. Obviously, they will drive the best bargain but ultimately it's all about exposure. The GAA hasn't helped itself in that regard by closing the inter-county season down for five months between September and February but for the rest of the year, they need more coverage, not just in terms of 'live' games but also with magazine programmes."

He's not letting go of this! ::)
If you were any use you'd be playing.

The RU and Soccer season is closed from 4 months too . He needs to stop flogging this dead horse
Anyway, long story short... is a phrase whose origins are complicated and rambling.

He's right about the magazine programme, I've been on about it for years.  Btw, what soccer season is closed down for 4 months??  (If you mean LOI season, that's largely an irrelevance in terms of competition for irish viewers).

I took a guess its prob closer to 2 and half 3 months but you cant have in both ways he'd be moaning about lack of club time if you  only have a 2 month break.
Also September is a lie, one week in September their is no IC action  , November to Jan  is closer to the truth
